How 3M Defines Diversity, Inclusion and Equity

Diversity

The ways people differ from each other physically, socially and psychologically. We appreciate the wide array of perspectives, abilities, experiences and personalities that make each individual unique.

Inclusion

An environment where individuals feel safe to engage and participate fully because they feel respected, comfortable to express their ideas, and valued for their unique voice and abilities.

Equity

A guarantee of fair treatment, access, opportunity and advancement we provide for all individuals by advancing systems and processes that counteract social inequities and prevent additional barriers from forming.

Our Company’s Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion and Progress

We’ve established a goal to double the pipeline of diverse talent in management by 2025 across all countries because we know that a diverse, global workforce helps us relate more closely to the needs of all 3M customers, suppliers and channel partners around the world. We’ve made progress, and we’re committed to doing even more. Our workforce diversity is currently 42.1%, representing nearly a 10 point improvement on our Diversity Index measurement and 29% progress toward our goal.

Our CEO’s Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion

The commitment to Diversity & Inclusion starts at the top. 3M’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mike Roman, has created a CEO Inclusion Council—a group of diverse 3M leaders from across the globe that focuses on elevating and prioritizing actions to build a more inclusive and competitive workplace.

Mike also signed the Catalyst CEO Champion for Change pledge. Together with 50+ other global companies and Catalyst Inc., a leading global nonprofit helping to build workplaces that work for women, Mike and 3M made strong organizational commitments to support diversity, inclusion and gender equality at work.

These UN standards recognize that more must be done to achieve equal treatment for women and individuals who identify as lesbian, gay, bi, trans and intersex (LGBTI) around the globe – and that companies play an important role in advancing equity.

To support these standards, 3M is committed to having processes, policies and programs in place to promote equality and safety, preventing harassment and discrimination, and advancing women and LGBTI+ individuals.

Employee Resource Networks

3M supports employee communities that champion inclusion and work across the company to engage and empower our people and enrich our culture. 3M’s Employee Resource Networks give employees an opportunity to network, collaborate and enhance their leadership skills.

The network focuses on accelerating the inclusion and advancement of diverse talent at 3M by attracting and developing African Americans in order to better reflect the diversity of the markets in which we work.

This network works to make a difference in our 3M community by supporting people with disabilities and those whose lives are touched by them. They also aim to promote a workplace that embraces people with disabilities and seek to increase awareness and education on disability issues in our workplace.

This network strives to attract, develop, and advance Latinos, leveraging 3M’s inclusive environment and Latino culture to drive sustainable growth and support the changing communities that we live and work.

This group provides active support and outreach, recurring professional development and focused veteran hiring services to current 3M military veterans, their families and other military members seeking to join 3M.

A circle of people from American and First Nations Indian tribes bonded through native customs and traditions, this network’s focus is to embrace, contribute and promote leadership, culture awareness, community and the recruiting and retention of American Indians and Alaskan Natives.
